MHS AOM utilization rates <1% despite coverage since 2018. 0.44% of eligible ADSMs received AOMs. P&T already improved AOM coverage. Time for DoD to act. Treat obesity like a disease. Revise policies to allow AOM use in AD! @SecDef @MarkHertling doi.org/10.1002/oby.24…

Tricare has covered AOMs since 2018 but these changes reduce prior auth administrative burden on providers and improves access to incretin therapy!

People need to stop crapping on primary care doctors. They do not have the time or resources to do their job to the fullest of their abilities & that’s not their fault. They should be compensated more. They experience increased rates of burn out compared to other specialties.

There is no rational reason, other than greed, for Novo Nordisk to charge Americans nearly $1,000 a month for Ozempic when it costs less than $5 to manufacture it and can be purchased in Germany for just $59. Novo must substantially reduce the price of Ozempic in the US now.

Show me a practical, feasible plan for fixing the US food environment so thoroughly that the new obesity drugs are no longer needed. Until then, let's stop presenting diet and drugs as competing approaches.
